Obviously he believes that authors never, ever consider prestige or circulation volume when trying to get published.OK. Of course prestige of journal and large circulation is irrelevant to authors.
You asked how the peer-review process can be corrupted, I answered how it can be, and how it actually WAS corrupted. I also mentioned that the peer-review process is the currency of dissemination of scientific knowledge. That means that the only information about science that has any value in science is peer-reviewed information.
What is unclear to you?
Oh. Well, I was understanding that we were talking about science, here. So, when you brought that up, obviously you were talking about something other than science.
I wonder what the name of his universities journal is......and if anyone has even heard of it.
I mean, a CV with 50 publications from uni "journals" is so much more impressive than 50 pubs in JACS, Science, Nature, etc., right? I honestly thinks he believes everyone is buying that.
Si Modo, you should attempt at least one post where you don't make claims about what I think that are not supported by any evidence. You're making more shit up with every post.
I never said that university journals (the Harvard Law Review for instance) are as "impressive" as JACS, Science and Nature. That's just you being stupid.
